  • Embedded MIDIs

    I was there, Gandalf. My speakers still forgotten near full volume from my earlier Napster binge.

    *Actually I remember one single time this was awesome.

    I was into this webcomic called Life of Riley, and it was finally hitting the series climax where the main zeitgeist had broken free from Lillith’s mind control and turned on her releasing a burst of his aura at her with the sfx noise, “SHA!”

    And on that single strip they embedded Initial D’s crazy for love just right so that just as you’re reading that panel (probably hopefully), the song goes “SHA!” and starts building to its crescendo as the fight is ramping up.

    Shit was fire






  • I’m saying in the scenario where I don’t have the death note but live in a world where the corrupt powerful keep dropping dead when their corruption is publicized, that a person with good intentions can be tricked into doing bad things.

    There are reasonable philosophies that would say something like, “Even a court shouldn’t decide who should die because of the gravity of making a mistake.” Then that’s compounded for an individual, added to the problem that they weren’t accountable to anyone else in the society on where the line is in the first place.

    That said, it’s a hell of an opportunity to pass up, and I thunk it might be more evil to pass on the chance than to fuck up along the way. That said, I’d decide the set I needed to write in advance, then the last name would be my own with instructions to deliver a public confession and apology, because that’s just the kind of gravity we’re dealing with and the only way to accept accountability.

    Hell… I’d have to very seriously consider just writing the name of EVERY legacy economic or political powerhouse everywhere, wipe whole bloodlines off the map so the money doesn’t have anywhere to go but back into the nation, and see if society can heal with the reset. That seems well into obvious supervillain territory, and I don’t think my life would be nearly enough to atone for it, but it’d be cathartic as fuck.
